Movies Coming Out In January 2022 In Theaters

New Year, New Movies! What's Hitting Theaters in January 2022

January: the time for resolutions we probably won't keep, and also...new movies! Time to escape the post-holiday blues (and questionable weather) with some cinematic adventures. Let's peek at what's coming to a theater near you in the first month of the year.

Action-Packed Adventures

First up, we've got some thrills for the action junkies. Get ready for *some* explosions and edge-of-your-seat moments. Think of it as a way to burn off those extra Christmas cookies...but without any actual exercise.

While it was released in December 2021, The King's Man kept up the action into January. It's a prequel to the *Kingsman* movies we all love. This time, they go all the way back to World War I.

Get ready for sharp suits and even sharper fighting skills. It’s a proper origin story on how the independent intelligence agency came to be. Plus, who doesn't love a historical spy movie with a modern twist?

Thrills and Chills

Need something to keep you up at night? January has you covered. Sometimes, a good scare is just what we need to wake us up after all that holiday relaxation.

You could watch Scream. It's bringing back some familiar faces for a new generation of scares. The original cast returns to face a new Ghostface killer.

Get ready for a meta-horror experience. Prepare yourself for jump scares, plot twists, and plenty of homages to the original. Don't forget the popcorn!

Heartwarming Stories

If you are not a fan of screams and explosions, fear not! January offers some heartwarming options too. Because sometimes, all we need is a good cry...of joy!

Maybe you can check out Belle. It is an animated film that reinvents Beauty and the Beast in a futuristic setting. Prepare to be visually amazed by its anime-style graphics.

The film follows a shy high school student who creates an avatar.

Through her avatar she becomes a popular singer in the virtual world.

The Verdict? Something For Everyone

January 2022’s movie lineup offered a little something for everyone. From spy action to slasher horror and uplifting animated stories, there were plenty of choices to banish those winter doldrums.

So, grab your popcorn, settle into your comfy theater seat, and enjoy the show! Because let’s face it, is there any better way to beat the January blues?

Remember to check local listings for showtimes and availability. Also, maybe sneak in some extra candy...we won't tell.
